Mukul Roy, who was in the Trinamool Congress before joining the BJP, was directed by the court to cooperate with the investigation by the state police and to appear before the investigating officer as and when asked.

“There is no democracy in the state. The government is slaughtering democracy here. I met the Governor and apprised him of the present law and order situation in the state and how democracy is being murdered,” Mukul Roy said

The controversy over ‘Biswa Bangla’ started when former Trinamool Congress leader Mukul Roy, who is now with the BJP, alleged that Abhishek Banerjee, nephew of Mamata, owned the logo and that it was not a government entity.

In its observations, the court said that Abhishek should be a shareholder and board member while it did not find any relationship between him and Biswa Bangla Marketing Corporation and Jaago Bangla Media Limited.
